Karl,
I have been using a SATA HDD Docking station recently. The HDD just drops
into it. Latest has USB3 interface so is faster.
Advantage is 1 docking station can serve many HDDs. So only buy the
connection once. If the docking unit fails then just drop the HDD into
another. Not so expensive.

Just aheads up for those using external hard drives - I've been asked to
recover a small western digital passport hard drive and the prospects
aren't looking good.
